Changes in the carrot (Daucus carota L. cv. Nerac) cell wall during storage
The aim of this study was to examine biochemical changes in cell wall carbohydrates and extensin proteins during long-term storage of carrots (Daucus carota L. cv. Nerac). During the storage period of 6 months, cell wall fractions were isolated from the carrot at various times for carbohydrate and protein analysis. Signs of extensin cross-linking and its concomitant insolubilisation in the cell wa
